Larson Electronics has announced the release of an explosion proof Led string light that produces a total of 13,200 lumens while drawing just 120 watts. The LED system consists of 10, 12-watt LED lamps that operate on 120-277V AC, providing operators with a high output, flexible temporary work light solution for tunnels and underpasses. This unit is offered in a spot or flood configuration and is listed for worldwide use including the United States, Canada, Europe and Asia.

The EXHL-SL-10-LE1-BC-1227-E2E is an explosion proof string light with high-intensity LED illumination for hazardous locations and potentially explosive environments that consists of 10 LED lamps. Each 12-watt LED lamp is constructed of durable aluminum with a grey powder coating and an unbreakable polycarbonate lens to protect the LEDs inside. The EXHL-SL-10-LE1-BC-1227-E2E can be ordered in either a spot or flood configuration. The spot configuration features a 10° beam measuring 800`L and 140` W. The flood configuration throws a 40° beam measuring 300`L and 225`W. An adjustable mounting bracket allows operators to control the direction of the beam by simply tilting the unit towards the desired target while mounted.

This explosion proof string light is rated NEMA Type 3, 4, 4X, 7 (B, C, D) and 9 (E, F, G) and designed to withstand the rigors of demanding environmental and operating conditions while remaining lightweight and easy to use. The unit is also waterproof to 3 meters and resistant to the ingress of dust, dirt and humidity. The string light is Class I, Division 1 and 2, Groups B, C and D, Class I, Zones 1 & 2, Groups IIB+H2, IIA, Class II, Division 1 & 2, Groups E, F, and G, Class III, Div. 1 and 2 and is ATEX/IECEx rated.

This string light extends 125 feet with ten feet of 16/3 SOOW cable connecting each lamp together in a daisy chain configuration. For seamless connections, the input side features a 15-foot line-in cable terminated in an explosion proof plug. Plug options include: 5-15, 5-20 or 6-20. This wiring configuration prevents sparking if the lamps are pulled apart or dragged. The receptacle contacts are also deeply recessed to avoid accidental contact and ordinary plugs cannot activate the explosion proof receptacle, ensuring safety during use in explosive environments.
